Jury Duty over
January 31, 2007
It took all day. First, for some dumb reason, I thought I had to be there at 8:00. Nope, 8:30. That's okay, because I got a really really good parking space.
It was a case I just couldn't serve on. My husband thinks they probably already pulled me from the beginning since I'm a teacher.
Aggravated sexual assault of a minor under 14. Two counts, one of oral and one of manual penetration.
As it was, I was at the court house until 4:50. Yeah, much longer day than I'm used to.
I was able to keep my blood sugar until control while there. Poured the insulin on, with a 50% basal rate, just like I do for teacher workshops.
I did have to eat something in the afternoon, but I think that was more psychlogical than physical, but I was getting a headache.
The biggest impression I got? None of the speakers would survive a high school classroom, but the defense lawyer was the worse. He not only couldn't get to the point, he couldn't make a point.
